By HELOISE CRUSE Dear Ladies: Awhile back I went to a convention in Wasnington, D.C., of the National Institute of Drycleaning Association. And here's a goodie I learned! Lid you know that most cleaners win pre-shrink materials you have bougnt from a bolt? Weil,

tney will!

I had no idea that this was such a fabulous hint until I found that many things (guaranteed 2 per cent shrinkage) will shrink :i 4 of an inch PER YARD. So . . . the drycleaners told me that it’s far better to preshrink yardage—especially if it’s

thinkinjg you have gained another five pounds or so, the first time your suit is cleaned! Heloise

or dress. This way, a garment which has been made with pre-shrunk material will not shrink anymore with future drycleaning. This is the most amazing thing I’ve ever heard of and I didn't even know that drycleaners did

this.

One item which was brought up by the panel of professional cleaners was to be sure to NOTIFY your cleaners NOT to crease the material but to ROLL it before returning it to you. This way you will have no heavy creases to try to remove when sewing your garment. Those of you who sew should take this into consideration and

P.S. Read your tags and labels and see the guaranteed amount of shrinkage before you buy something. It may be worth your time in the long run. That is why “Joe Blow” puts these labels on things. Heloise

Dear Heloise: I have a baby who is a spitter. I found myself changing the sheets on her bed two or three times a day to keep her from sleeping on a soiled one. One day I got the idea of putting three sheets on the bed at one time and putting a rubber or plastic sheet between each sheet as 1 put them on the mattress. Then the next time she soiled

This is a brilliant idea! It does not seem to be so much the idea of removing a sheet that takes the time as it does putting on the clean one. Our thanks to Mrs. Kupper for this idea and bless, you, shug, you’re an angel. Heloise
